well, i hope you understand that that was an expose` of my disease, wherein i acknowledge a shortcoming of mine, and admit that it is me who is deficient there. While i still hold that the woman should come to the man, of course you would not do that so directly, i now know, but merely signal your interest in some manner (that would go right over my head), and let nature take its course from there.
See, Rick has it all sorted..
In his world, if the women likes a man, she just has to go up to the him and offer him a sammich.
The guy either eats it or declines.
Such a simple world he lives in...
ha well i am a disruptor myself, i train disruptors, but yes, one thing about being an Anarchist--and the reason, i guess, that God demands that of His apostles--is that one has to be correct. Doesn't mean they have to be right all of the time, but adaptable.
And i have my own problems, that make adaptability and recognition in these encounters hard enough--i mean, i am just now figuring out that i am not going to get an answer here, an answer which would address the question, it seems to me, in the clearest manner, yet i am the one characterized as being unclear.
so, if you have any ideas for that, how to fix that, be an interpreter, or stand in the gap some other way, i am open to suggestions, but i have to admit to you that i am the one to blame here, pretty much, i cause these problems, somehow, it is a recurring theme for me, that seems to be engendered by my inadvertently getting too pointed in my desire to clarify a point, or something?
And the end result is, i have to infer the answer i need, after i have made (only too) clear the point i wish to make, and i have to infer that, too, because of course the whole time i am being assured that i am making no sense, while it is only to obvious in these little recurring vignettes, that i keep engendering, where the lack of clarity lies, and when clarity is what is being avoided.
And i have really lost all interest in petting myself in these situations, now; i just want a "clear" answer.
(which, don't get me wrong, i have all the answer that i need on this particular little tempest-in-a-teacup now,
but again, by inference, when social inference is my biggest handicap)
(Is this what Christian Scientists mean by a "clear?" "Clearing" people?)
But anyway, if you have any..."clear" ideas on how i could do this better, that is what i am most interested in, ty.
You started out saying that you're a disruptor and train disruptors -- meaning What? What is a disruptor.
Well, Christ is a disruptor; and also Hitler.

Well, i
am an Anarchist, have been for years; but, as i am not too clear on your symbology yet, let me say that a better word for you there might be an Anabaptist, an Amish person, or a Mennonite, even if these are compromised anarchists; they vote, use corrupted forms of fiat money (which, for instance, Lincoln's "Greenbacks" were not; they were fiat, but not corrupted by dilution, such as we have today), etc; so, to be clear, i have no desire to overthrow the elected Gov, no delusions that i could maybe do a better job, none of that, ok.

Isn't a disrupter someone who is part of a group that is doing just fine and purposely 'stirs the pot' in order to 'cause a problem'.
that, to me, would be more like a Chaos Agent, a Hitler, someone deliberately setting out to disrupt, whereas i do not do this, intentionally; it is just an honest description of what i am, inferred from my interactions with others. Iow i have no agenda here; Anarchists do not seek new converts, and there is nothing to join, in a manner of speaking. As to "seeing myself as an Apostle," i would not make this allusion, to myself.

But the thought process Could be -- just because a group Is 'doing just fine', does Not mean they are doing the Right thing. They Might be headed in the wrong direction -- so You would be observing That and attempt to get their attention and change their direction to a more correct direction. So - is that what you're trying to do in this Forum -- these various conversation threads? Trying to redirect the beliefs here?
actually, if you will note, i rarely or never ask questions from "Why" anymore, although i might get pulled into that sometimes, in weak moments; and for the most part i ask questions as a student would, or at least i try to. While these Qs often come across as challenging, or confrontational, i guess, i am generally just seeking to understand, and have no desire to, say, condemn anyone who holds a Trinitarian understanding of God--i see no point in that. So you might say that i am more often challenging people's doctrines, because it is in testing these spirits, and seeking the fruit, that they become revealed, for whatever truth might be contained therein.

You've also brought up Christian Scientists -- are you referring to the belief system or Scientists who are Christians. I'm thinking you're talking about the belief system. Being 'clear' in your comments -- easily understood. But I'm Not a Christian Science person - so I wouldn't know. Don't know What would be meant by 'clearing' people. Unless it would be making sure the person has proper authorization for doing a specific thing. Sometimes people need 'security clearance' to gain access to certain areas of a company where sensitive material is known. Does this make sense to you?
yes, but i don't think that is the same "clear" that a CS refers to, wadr.

For instance -- ty -- took me a while to realize you were saying 'thank you' - at least that's what I've assumed you're saying. Why not just say 'thank you'.
sorry, but these are commonly accepted vernacular, and dictionaries of the vernacular are two clicks away now, for anyone unfamiliar with the vernacular, a simple "highlight/search" gets them hipped, and i have...18 other conversations in my queue at the moment, so i hope you understand? 21, now.

You have such a mixture of beliefs that you try to express -- that it's hard to follow them. And Sometimes it's hard to say if the med marijuana is actually helping you or hurting you in your ability To express yourself. Of course -- all we know Here is what you share with us -- and That can be jumbled. So.
well, just so you know, i have not interacted with you while medicated yet, i am out, and have been out for weeks, and the holidays have interrupted my usual rotation to MI, so i am likely to be out until Dec 26 at least, not that i really care, but i guess it is you that really suffers for that, not me, sorry.

As to how to help fix you? Don't think that can be done on Here. A therapist? Psychiatrist? One who is a Christian. Some problems are caused by a chemical imbalance in a person's brain or a variety of other situations in a person's life. Who got you onto the marijuana? Is there another potential direction for you to try?
i gotta tell ya, the truth seems to be working for me quite well in the interim, and i have not found any replies here to suggest otherwise, wadr; in fact, this characterization seems to be affirmed, in the silences i get here, at the places where it seems to me an answer is demanded, no offense.
So, i just finished an article, i wonder if you might give me a critique, by way of illumination. I will tell you that this article has been NFDed at several sites already--sorry, Nominated For Deletion--the prevailing summary/reason being "accuracy issues." So, whaddya think? Ty
